Zenith wavemagnet antenna
#3

Think I have it figure out. Speculation about a missing 3-prong adapter didn't add up since it was in the SW circuit from the schematic. The fixed BC antenna loop is in the roof of the cabinet. However the other end of red twin lead cable will connect on a pair of snaps on the lid. Removing the lid's snap panel shows wires going into the lid. Put the wavemagnet near a window and the RF energy travels through the cable to the lid loop which re-radiates the RF signal into the fixed loop BC antenna. Anyway this is how i think it was intended to work. The wire in the lid does not show continuity like the fixed BC antenna or wavemagnet loop but think this is OK. Below is a pic of my radio showing the BC wavemagnet in use.
